Celebrate Pokemon Day

On February 27, 1996 Pokémon burst out of its Pokéball with the release of Pokémon Red and Green in Japan. While it would be a couple more years before the series became the global hit it is today, that day 28 years ago marked when the world was forever changed.
Join us this “Pokémon Day” as we celebrate our favorite Pokémon apps and games with announcements and in-game events.

Who’s that Pokémon?
